Take-out Tuesday, Honey Mustard Chicken with Mushrooms

Please join me in saying constant Prayers for my home state California
and everyone suffering with loss and disruption…
Now that it’s almost November, days are going to get busier and busier!
If you have 5 Minutes
chicken, mushrooms, mustard, mayo, lemon, honey
You are about to have a 5 star winner chicken dinner!
This is so easy to put together
Whether you’re dining at home or taking dinner to a friend,
it is sure to be a hit
I try to keep chicken tenders in my freezer
so on busy days it’s there to grab and make a quick dinner
You can defrost them quickly by putting them in a bowl full of cold water
Mix the mayo, mustard, honey, and lemon…
It doesn’t have to be perfectly incorporated, see the white blobs?
Just a quick stir and pour 1/2 of the mixture over the chicken
Reserve the rest of the honey mustard mixture for topping the dish later
Give the chicken a quick saute in butter and olive oil,
2-3 minutes a side in a skillet over medium high heat,
until it turns golden.
Don’t worry if it isn’t cooked all the way through, it will finish in the final baking
Remove chicken and place in a sprayed baking dish
Then brown the mushrooms in the same skillet
and place on top of the chicken
Top with reserved honey mustard sauce
Bake at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through
Dinner’s ready!
Serve with roasted potatoes, rice or a piece of toasted garlic bread
green beans or a salad

Jenna, we love chicken and this looks delicious. Quick and easy on a busy day. Praying for all those in California! Have a most wonderful Tuesday!
This is a recipe I’ve been making for years, always good!
It’s terrible about California. Prayers to all affected.
This recipe is exactly the way I like my recipes…quick and easy. It sounds wonderful too!
I am getting lazier and lazier in the kitchen, I love to cook, but I want it to be easy!
Same here.
Sounds delicious. And i have those plates! Couldn’t resist the adorable fall background.

Hi Jenna, oh wow this dish looks so good and one that I would love to make sometime. Thanks for the recipe and enjoy the week. Have a Happy Halloween! Julie
thank you Julie 🙂
Hi Jenna, I make something similar for pork tenderloin. I like your suggestion for thawing the chicken, I will have a try this method! 😊 I like the addition of mushrooms in your recipe.
The fires are horrible in California. I know someone who was rebuilding after the last terrible fire and may lose this home too. So terrible…
that’s so sad…I have a lot of family in Calif but so far no one has been affected…thawing meat in cold water really works!
Prayers for California!
Your dish looks yummy and I love an easy recipe. Thanks so much.
thanks Bonnie 😘
Who doesn’t like quick and easy? This will be perfect after a day in the desert and we want to eat quick. Thank you!
thanks Nancy, quick and easy it is!
Hi, Jenna! I just made a copy of this recipe, and it’s hanging on my refrigerator for a dinner this week! Many thanks!!
Thank you for thinking of us out here in CA. The area where I live is near the beach, and just affected by the air quality at times. But, it’s nice to know there are good thoughts coming this way during such a stressful time for many of our communities.
So quick and easy Jenna! Those fires are terrifying, keeping those in CA in our thoughts and prayers.♥
Jenna this dish sounds amazing and so easy. I love chicken dishes. With limited power, the photos are not downloading, but I can picture the dish in my mind. Yes prayers are needed for California, thanks for thinking of us and your home state.
I love the flavors in this awesome dish! Hope you are having a great week and thanks so much for sharing your post with us at Full Plate Thursday,456. We look forward to seeing you again very soon!
